I see your point!

Yeah, that makes sense to me. Of course, you'd have to compensate a bit if you were doing an all-time competition--ex. Sullivan v. Ali. I'm pretty much a 1950s to 1970s type of guy. While I'm familiar with the major fighters from the early days, I've done little in terms of simulations for that era. What you are doing here is whetting my curiosity!

As I am writing this, your approach to the foul frequency is makine more and more sense to me. I'm going to follow your suggestions and ratings adjustments and run some simulations. I'll let you know how it turns out.

I think we all owe you a big thanks for sharing your expertise and knowledge. Here's a request!

Why don't you post a brief bibliography? Nothing elaborate---just the essentials. I'm certain that there are others who would love to delve into this period in greater detail.
